Jægersborg Dyrehave
Forest · Denmark
An 11-square-kilometer royal hunting park north of Copenhagen, fenced by King Frederik III in 1669 and grazed today by some 2,100 red, fallow, and sika deer. Ancient oaks, a few reputedly over 1,000 years old, turn gold and rust through October around the Baroque lodge Eremitageslottet, timed with the rut.
